<br />No, but here is a photo that you can estimate from.

Do you know what size the board is in the channel under the keel in your picture? Maybe 2 x 10"? That would give me an idea how wide that wing is.

Thanks.

Wow you sent me an email and I did not respond to you, I am so sorry. I will measure this weekend but I am pretty sure they are 2x12. Have you called Catalina Yachts? 818-884-7700

Thanks for the input everyone. I had a trailer built locally...



...and we have our '89 Wing Keel. Here is the whole rig on the drive back to Ohio...

Hi David,

We can't see your photos. I noticed you are using Yahoo ... I don't think anyone has had success with that site ... you might try [url="http://www.shutterfly.com/index.jsp"]Shutterfly[/url] instead.

Good luck ... I'd really like to see your new trailer!

Gorgeous trailer... there is some 'serious' steel there.

Your photo was taken at CAT truck scales, what did you weigh in at? As I recall, my gross weight came in at 13,800lbs. (7,400lbs truck, 6,400 lbs boat+trailer)

Actually we were just parked there and didn't weigh in. I found myself looking for truck stops to pull into while towing so I would have plenty of room . The plate on the trailer says it weighs just over 1500 lbs.

Price with electric brakes was $3995. I went with 4 wheel surge and that added $200.

That's a beefy looking trailer and good price. I like the addition of the inner bunks. Did you have to adjust the bunk heights?

Yeah, since it was the first time the trailer was being used we rented the hoist and suspended the 25 over the trailer to make the adjustments. I paid the hoist guy to come in on a Saturday and it may be the best $$$ I have spent.
